What Causes Headaches In The Evenings And Mornings?
I am almost 70 and I had the hard lump appear about 5-6 years ago. I have started having headaches staring early in the evening and lasting into the morning. I take a pain medications for it and it takes it away, but then the same things happens over and over. My doctor said he has never heard of any one having pain with these but has scheduled me for a ct scan in case it involves my nerve. Could this cause such pain?

Hi,
I understand your concern and by what you say I feel that you are coating about a dermoid cyst on the scalp.
Your doctor is right in saying that usually this type of dermoid cysts are painless but as this is painful they are evaluating you further. But I do not see any major health concern here. Please do not worry.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
